Question:

My calendar used to show my facebook stuff like friends birthdays...what happened there?
[EVO 4G General] -shift-:
check in calendar, see if it's syncing to fb. it needs to be checked to sync. i just checked on mine and it's working. maybe do a cache wipe?
[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
Hmm I checked in the calendar settings and all I see is my gmail...any idea how to add facebook
[EVO 4G General] -shift-:
oh pfft, silly me. i added the fb calendar link into my gmail calendar and it syncs it through that. you can try that:

hope that helps!
[EVO 4G General] TalynOne:
So apparantly there's an issue with Froyo Evo 4G which locks down the ability to stream via RTSP via 3g. The work-around is to turn on WiFi, even if you stream off 3G (which works with WiFi radio on), anyone know if using Cyanogen has this issue?

[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
thanks buddy. ill try it
[EVO 4G General] timtlm:
Cool! I like it. It doesn't appear to do birthdays, but I don't care much about that.

HTC Facebook sense app was what synced fb events and birthdays. The standard fb app would need to be updated to do this. Right now it only syncs contacts.
[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
Yea its not doing birthdays, that's the main thing I wanted lol..oh well
[EVO 4G General] fsiddique:
Try EboBirthday, its a really good app, does the job for me.
[EVO 4G General] -shift-:
sorry! i thought it did. it shows up on mine though. :(
[EVO 4G General] timtlm:
Maybe you have your bdays setup in your Google contacts and it's actually the Google calendar showing the bdays and not Facebook?
[EVO 4G General] -shift-:
yea, probably. i'll check it in more depth once i'm done playing with the need for speed hot pursuit demo ;)
[EVO 4G General] riassan:
hey shift,

Do you know anything really about the APN's dealling with MMS? just asking out of curiosity bc im trying to pin down this problem with mms and no vid or sound but photo yes? if that makes sense. lol
[EVO 4G General] -shift-:
i haven't been able to fully test it, but i know haxrnick is having similar issues. if any of you guys can post up a full logcat of what happens when you receive and try to download a particular video/audio mms, i'd like to take a look at it. i'll try to see if one of my friends is up for testing tomorrow as well. this has been bugging me for quite some time.
[EVO 4G General] riassan:
yeah i can do it right now let me reboot and send a mms with vid and audio to myself and capture logcat and post it.
[EVO 4G General] riassan:
okay so now its working??? IDK WTF i did to fix it but it works now I'm running nightly 140 with stock kernal. today i did i back up flashed back to myn's stock deoxed 3.29, then myns warm 2.2 and then MIUI, since iwas having the same problem with that rom as well(AOSP based so go figure) and MIUI wasn't working either. So i restored my backup and just tried to duplicate to send you this logcat of it but now it works. I have a logcat of the MIUI if that might help since i think it shares some things in that department.
[EVO 4G General] -shift-:
well, early in snap kernel testing, we did learn that flashing to a sense rom fixed lots of sms/mms problems. it may be the case here as well. in any case, i'll go through the logcats and see what's up. but first, some shuteye!
[EVO 4G General] riassan:
yes sir, and thanks for all your work and doing me the solid of checking this out. later.
[EVO 4G General] haxrnick:
Lucky you. I've used Fresh and sent video and audio mms then nandroided back to CM and still no good. I'm going to flash DC and update everything on that rom and send mms to see if it works then nand back to CM. Wish me luck. Hopefully shift_ can come up with something.

[EVO 4G General] riassan:
okay so now different issue with mms bug, i have photo and recorded video and audio, but no animation or audio clips with still photos. so something im guessing still isnt right in there damn it! hope this helps to get all sorted for everyone.
[EVO 4G General] Aerodynamix:
Really digging the release client. This is easily as smooth as Snap. And almost as good battery life. &Quadrant scores are great so far, I'm averaging like 1560. Also, idk what exactly what changed to improve this, but like someone mentioned before, fps2sd gets waaaaaaaay lower standard deviation now. woot!

Random question/suggestion: Is any more work going into the Swipe Away Notifications feature? It's very nice, but I think it should be smoother/more interactive. You basically swipe and then it hesitates and plays the animation. Perhaps my standards are high because I do actually own a palm pre, but I wish it actually kind of followed your finger as you swiped, etc.
[EVO 4G General] RichTJ99:
If I have not tried RC1, am I better off using the latest nightly, or RC1? I didnt see any supersonic commits (though i admit its hard for me to spot them).
[EVO 4G General] laydros:
I don't think there have been any, certainly not anything significant.

Even if there had been some, I would go with RC1 anyway, since it has proven to be very stable for several people here.

RC1 has been great on FC i had was with the crap 3d gallery :/

[EVO 4G General] posguy99:
<shrug> There haven't been any changes since RC1 anyway, so the world's not going to end.
[EVO 4G General] DraginMagik:
i wish FB would fix their stuff so we can get bdays on the calendar again. or at least allow us to sync that data to gmail. i was actually able to get out ecards in time when it was working. :)

sorry for the lack of response, guys. i've been super busy. i'll take a look at the logcats later today (at work lol) and see what's going on. don't worry, this is my main priority at the moment as it's been bugging me all morning and afternoon.

[EVO 4G General] thenewguy821:
Just a quick question. I notice some of the "Sense" ROMs come with QuickOffice. I have tried to install this with CM6, with no luck. I Notice in the official installed name of the program, it says HTC, I am assuming the program will only work with Sense. Is there a similar program available that will work with CM6?

Just to Clarify, I am NOT asking for "Free" links to paid .apk's, or any violation of the software sharing rules. I am just looking for a name of a program that will run on CM6, and be able to open excel and word files.

Thanks.

and...

Really???? A "Senior Member" with over 200 posts has to "BUMP" one of the busiest threads on the forum?
[EVO 4G General] f1n3st:
Ever since i flashed to the CM6 Nightly builds i've been encountering a few problems. These problems didn't exist with my previous rom which was the damage control 3.2 i think.

First problem is the on-screen keyboard, it seems like this keyboard is the one that comes with the new froyo update, i dislike this keyboard mainly because everytime i try to type anything in the web browser box the whole keyboard screen slides up after each button press. this gets extremely annoying, this keyboard also doesnt have the directional buttons so editing documents or just simply editing typos is cumbersome. I would like to switch back to the keyboard i had before, i believe it was the keyboard that was on 2.1

Second problem is the flash player doesn't work at all, it definitely worked on Damage Control but for some reason it doesnt work on this CM6 build, yes i've tried uninstalling and reinstalling but nothing seems to fix this problem. Is this a known problem in the CM builds? Mainly flash videos don't work. i've yet to try it on games like miniclip.com.

any help on these two problems would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

I just remembered I have 1 more question its about a voicemail app that let's u hear ur voicemails straight from the app I remember there's a play, last, and next button I remember I had it on the stock sprint rom. can anyone tell me what the app is called and where I can get it?
[EVO 4G General] stangdriverdoug:
Google voice.....downloadable right from the market
[EVO 4G General] posguy99:

There is, of course, something wrong with the copy of QuickOffice included in CM6.

I didn't have Quick Office in CM6 ROM, I tried installing it from an existing apk that I had from an earlier ROM.

I get awesome standby time when screen is off, but when it's on, I lose about one % per minute.this sucks.
[EVO 4G General] -shift-:
if it's between 100% and 90%, this has been talked about already. it's how htc set up their li-ion batteries for a multitude of their phones. there's a way to charge all the cells in the battery...

or, alternatively, have you tried doing cyanogen's battery calibration method?
[EVO 4G General] nicholaaaas:
try documents to go... it's much much better anyway
[EVO 4G General] herzzreh:
This is on the nightly from the 9th (810).

Nope, it's not that. I started out at 79 about ten minutes ago and right now I'm at 72... I have done the calibration and all the other good stuff.

Phone is sleeping, nothing runs out of control. If I don't turn on the screen, I lose maybe one or two % per hour with data and sync on. My screen brightness is set at 1/3.
[EVO 4G General] -shift-:
maybe you're in a low 3g signal area? i know my battery gets ravaged when that happens.
[EVO 4G General] Shinzul:
For some reason, I can't install a thing anymore...

Well, I can install some things from the market, like I downloaded LP the other day and that worked.

But I have Angry_birds.apk that I had installed on a different ROM just fine, and now when I try, it says: "Application not installed." Any ideas?
[EVO 4G General] riassan:
Hey shift i'm just appreciative to the fact your even taking the time to look at it for me bro @ all.

# Common: Configurable audio focus for music app - Jonas Larsson

# Common: Dismiss notifications by swiping - Evan Charlton
[EVO 4G General] timtlm:
You can configure whether music pauses or how much volume drops while music is playing when you get a notification. It's in the music player settings.

When you have multiple notifications, you can dismiss just one of them in the notification drawer by swiping left/right on an individual notification. For me it won't work if I swipe too quickly though.
[EVO 4G General] DraginMagik:
had something odd happen. i have commented (like some others) about the data connection 'being flaky' on 6.1_rc1. my 3g totally went out a few hours ago.

it was fine at the office all day...if it died before i left the office then it was barely before. i made no changes to my device today aside from wallpaper. when i left i noticed the battery was at 50% so i plugged it into the car charger. on the way home i had to stop off and that is when i noticed that i had no data (my weather app said no connection). so i checked email and browser...also no juice. i noticed 3G was off so i toggled it on...but it would not come on. wiped cache and dalvik then reflashed 6.1RC1 ROM. no data...3G would not turn on. went back into recovery and flashed nightly140. still no data.

unfortunately, i am on-call this weekend so i was unable to troubleshoot beyond that. i nandroided back and all is well again.

in the event i run into that again. would you want logcat data while i'm trying to toggle the 3G or does it matter?

whoa.. sorry for the lateness, guys. one hell of a busy day, especially at work. anyway....

haxrnick? any success on your end?

i went through the logs and the only flag i saw was issues with apn, which seems to have been mostly fixed after flashing a sense rom. i do think apn needs to be looked at a bit more. i'll ask cyanogen for his thoughts. haxrnick, can you please provide a full logcat of when it failed for you? what you provided before wasn't enough, unfortunately.
[EVO 4G General] riassan:
hey shift just got in and flashing RC1 as we speak so i can get a logcat of that like you asked me earlier bro
[EVO 4G General] haxrnick:
I've tested after the sense flash and everything seems to be working. Tested sending to myself and others sending to me. Appreciate all your help. Hard to come by around here sometimes.
[EVO 4G General] -shift-:
sweet. thanks. i asked cyanogen as well, hopefully we'll hear his thoughts on it as well. also, if you can get a logcat tonight, that'd be awesome since i'm probably going to be pretty unavailable as well as heavily inebriated for the rest of the weekend ;)

oh woo! and this is on rc1?

EDIT:

oh and gentlemen:

cyanogen responded to me and is looking into it later tonight:

hey shift sorry about last night started watching Toy Story 3 with my daughter and passed out while i was waiting on Evo to load up from fresh install. well no mms again after wiping 140 nightly and flashing straight RC1. well guess i got to flash my stock sense and flash back to 140. lol that seems to be the best running build for me so far lately, good batt and overall performance running stock kernel.
[EVO 4G General] -shift-:
oh, no worries. that's an excellent movie btw. anyhoo, i have to run, actually, and i probably won't be near my laptop until tomorrow. i know cyanogen is looking into it as well, as per the tweet i linked to. hopefully, he made some progress last night. anyway, i'll compare the logs and see what's going on when i have some time.

What kinda of battery monitoring apps you guys use? I use battery left and juice plotter. Is it normal that thay would show two different estimates till battery dies? Battery left shows about 5hrs and juice plotter shows about 8 hr. Also, this morning I noticed I lost 5% within a half hour or less and most of that was spent on the drive to work while the phone was in my pocket not being used. I'm currently running atk, juice defender, and setcpu. Any recommendations on maybe a way to calibrate the battery or on settings to apply to setcpu would be much appreciated.
[EVO 4G General] Dumboguy03:
Guys with mms issues:

The following worked for me and took way less time then all that flashing. As shift said they mostly appear to be apn issues. Theres an apn widget in the market by curved fish (apn on/off) that had the option to restore the default settings. Whenever I have an issue this rectifies it. Let me know if this works for you guys as well.

Cheers.
[EVO 4G General] -shift-:
ok, so i couldn't help myself and looked it over. apn doesn't seem to be working properly. still, cyanogen is looking into it. keep a close eye on the commits at @cmsrc on twitter. if i see anything, i'll try to post it up here.

i used system monitor as i felt juiceplotter sucked up battery too quickly. have you wiped your battery stats, recalibrated your battery, and let it go through a few charge cycles? it'll improve over time.

yes, i used to use that until apn was adjustable within cm. still, this is worth a shot for those having issues. thanks for the heads up!

So for curiosity's sake, I just installed MIUI and checked it out.

And from the perspective of someone who's been using CM for about 3 weeks now, it's not as impressive as I thought it would be.

Certainly the UI tweaks and entire theme is pleasant for eyes, but it's actually not as smooth as I was expecting. In fact, I'd say that CM 6.1 is SMOOTHER than MIUI.

Also, battery life, surprisingly, wasn't nearly as good as I've been getting with CM 6.1, though I haven't tried either for a long period of time really.

Anyways, just thought I'd let you all know, in case you were wondering. MIUI still is very fun and different though, I'd still recommend checking it out, but CM will still be my daily driver.
